The Michigan Judicial Institute will offer the Michigan Family Treatment Court (FTC) Virtual Training Series online beginning Thursday, March 10.
In partnership with Center for Children and Family Futures (CFF), the MI Problem Solving Court Team is hosting a four session training focused specifically on Family Treatment Court (FTC) Best Practices Standards.
In these four sessions FTC teams will learn about the FTC Best Practice Standards, highlighting the importance of taking a family-centered approach, and explore how the best practice standards can be effectively operationalized.
Teams will learn the rationale and provisions of each best practice standard and then spend time in breakout rooms to discuss gaps, strategies, and next steps to implement best practices in FTC.
The series will take place with:
• Session 1 March 10 Standards 1 & 8
• Session 2 May 24 Standards 2 & 3
• Session 3 July 19 Standards 4 & 5
• Session 4 September 22 Standards 6 & 7
Registration for each training typically opens about 30 days before the training. The Field Services Problem-Solving Court team will send a notification announcing the opening of registration. All PSC trainings in 2022 will be held remotely via Zoom. Additional trainings will likely be added to the calendar throughout the year.
Registration will be open until Tuesday, March 8.
Once registration is approved, attendees will receive a confirmation e-mail with the Zoom credentials to join the webinar.
